World War One / WW1 Bantam Regiment
« on: Monday 16 April 12 09:43 BST (UK)  »
 :( My uncle Walter Charles Maskell born 1900 at 25 Laurel Road Brighton. Apparently was too short for the regular army, so he enrolled at Chadderton, Oldham into the Lancashire Fusiliers a Bantam Regiment in 1915. I  have found information on  Bantam Regiments on pathe but, can't seem to find any military info re his service, possibly killed in action as he never returned to Brighton . Can any one point me in the right direction.

Hi  I hope someone can help me with this

First query
my ggggrandfather was Richard Willett born 1814 Petworth Sussex his wife Louisa was born 1815 Crayford Kent. Their daughter Elizabeth born 1839 married a Deacon I think it may have been either a William or a Thomas but I just can't make the connection. The only census for Elizabeth is 1881 as head of household her parents are now living with her in Brighton Sussex.
